SGF MO Burns Supper

The Scottish St. Andrew's Society of Springfield's Burns Supper was held last evening, with some 115 souls in attendance. Since I was one of the organisers and Master of Ceremonies for the evening, I didn't get a chance to take too many photos, but here is one of yours truly, Asser 1 and our society's president leading the company in the Burns song "It twas upon a Lammas Night" (Corn Riggs):

Here is a photo of our "icon table" at the Springfield Burns Supper:



I'm having trouble downloading the photos from my camera -- this comes from our president.

The outfit looks smart Todd and I sympathize with your computer problems.

Hopefully you can figure them out and get up the rest as I know you always do Burns' Night right!

Cheers

Jamie

SGF Kilties





This was the largest group of kilted gents we have had at the Burns Supper in my memory -- and by this point in the evening, at least 3-4 had already left.
